USART connection problem with WSNDemo Application

Zigduino r2 and BitCloud

I compiled successful BitCloud stack ver 1.14 in avrstudio 6.1 and now I have a problem to connect to PC by USART and use WSNDemo application.
My fusebits configuration:
Fuse:
Extended 0xFF
High 0x9c
Low 0x62

used makefile: Coordinator_Stk600_Atmega128rfa1_8Mhz

the part of my configuration.h file:

//-----------------------------------------------
//BOARD_STK600
//-----------------------------------------------
#ifdef BOARD_STK600
  // Defines primary serial interface type to be used by application.
  #define APP_INTERFACE APP_INTERFACE_USART
  //#define APP_INTERFACE APP_INTERFACE_SPI

  //-----------------------------------------------
  //APP_INTERFACE == APP_INTERFACE_USART
  //-----------------------------------------------
  #if (APP_INTERFACE == APP_INTERFACE_USART)
    // Defines USART interface name to be used by application.
    #define APP_USART_CHANNEL USART_CHANNEL_0
  #endif

  #endif
#endif

#define CS_CHANNEL_MASK (1L<<0x0f)
#define CS_EXT_PANID 0xAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALL
#define CS_UID 0x01LL
#define CS_NWK_UNIQUE_ADDR 0
//#define CS_NWK_UNIQUE_ADDR 1

I tried both USART_CHANNEL_0 and USART_CHANNEL_1 connfiguration and hardware connection to UART1 and UART0, in both case the voltage on TX is 2.3V and still the same before and after reset. Earlier for test I used the ZigduinoRadio stack, it works fine and TX voltage was 3.3V if usart not send any data of course.

Do you have any solution how to looks configuration.h file or maybe post here working hex files, for test.

I will be grateful for any help.

I tested the BitCloud code by led blink and microcontroller stops on the SYS_SysInit();
this function requires compiled and closed source. Probably the SYS_SysInit() uses HAL_Init(); so I checked this. Now the program stops on halStartingCalibrate(); Any ideas how to modified the halStartingCalibrate() function to properly calibrate the microcontroler with RF? is it possible that some electronic periphery could desynchronize the microcontroler at this moment on zigduino platform?
